I wake up slowly. The room is dark and quiet. There is a moment of panic. Immediately I can smell him. In the pillows, in the sheets, and I know where I am now. I sigh and snuggle deeper in the bed, reaching my arm out for him. He feels me shift and reaches back to me, grabbing me and pulling me to him. I nestle my face into his neck and inhale deeply. He smells like home. I wrap my arms around him and hold him so close, loving the feel of him, the realness of his warm sleepy body. My eyes close again and I feel myself falling...... falling...... into sleep... into him.... into this new life........
This is not reality. This is only a dream.
